Haftungsausschluss für US-Exportkontrollen: In Übereinstimmung mit den U.S. Export Administration Regulations (15 CFR §743.13(b)) können einige Positionen bei Intuitive Surgical US-Exportkontrollen für potenzielle Mitarbeiter unterliegen, die Staatsangehörige von Ländern sind, die derzeit einen Embargo- oder Sanktionsstatus haben.

Bestimmte Informationen, die Sie im Rahmen der Bewerbung angeben, werden verwendet, um festzustellen, ob Intuitive Surgical (i) in Ihrem Namen eine Exportlizenz von der US-Regierung einholen muss (Hinweis: Das Lizenzierungsverfahren der Regierung kann 3 bis 6+ Monate dauern) oder (ii) einen Technologiekontrollplan ("TCP") implementieren muss (Hinweis: verlängert den Einstellungsprozess in der Regel um 2 Wochen).
